Bill Bellamy, Vivica A. Fox to Star in New Series Mr. Box Office

Tim Meadows and Rick Fox round out cast for upcoming sitcom.

Bill Bellamy is about to give Entourage a run for its money! The actor is joining forces with Vivica A. Fox, Rick Fox, Keshia Knight Pulliam and Tim Meadows for a new sitcom, Mr. Box Office, to debut this fall.
The series centers on actor Marcus Jackson (Bellamy), one of the biggest movie stars in the world who, after pushing a paparazzo, finds himself having to put his film career on hold, while relegated to a long-term community service stint teaching underprivileged high school kids in South Central. Rick Fox will play a physical education teacher at the school while Vivica A. Fox will play a "cougar" history teacher.

The pilot for Mr. Box Office has already begun shooting with a 104-episode order in place, ensuring the series will remain on the air for quite some time. Deadline.com reports the show will likely air on the CW network.
